About Denise
Denise Jensen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 16 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship strain, parenting challenges, ADHD, and concerns like codependency and caregiver stress.
She keeps things practical in sessions. Denise listens first, then helps clients identify small steps they can try between meetings. She draws on Client-Centered approaches and cognitive-behavioral methods to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try alternatives. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help when someone is unsure what to change.
Sessions often look like talking through a current problem, clarifying what matters most, and choosing one or two doable actions to test out. Denise uses narrative ideas to help people reframe difficult experiences and to reduce stuck thinking. She also works with sleep problems, anger, career questions, and midlife transitions.
Her style favors strengths people already have. That can mean spotting coping skills that have worked before and building on them. She supports parents dealing with blended family issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and the stress of caregiving.
People who come wanting practical change will find a straightforward approach. Denise helps clients sort priorities, set realistic goals, and track progress over time. She offers sessions in English and practices in Indiana.
How sessions work
How Denise uses evidence-based approaches online
Denise commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and helping people name their priorities. That approach helps when someone needs space to sort through feelings and decide what matters most. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot patterns in thoughts and behaviors. CBT provides tools for changing unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors, which can aid anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Denise will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their situation, goals, and preferences. That means trying ideas, checking what helps, and adjusting methods together rather than applying a single technique from the start.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, remove commute time, and make it simpler to join from different locations. Licensed professionals can use a mix of conversation, worksheets, and goal-setting in virtual sessions to keep therapy practical and focused on real-life changes.
